             Summary: Enable client-side caching for scans on HBase
                 Key: HIVE-3603
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3603
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Karthik Ranganathan
            Priority: Minor


HBaseHandler sets up a TableInputFormat MR job against HBase to read data in. 
The underlying implementation (in HBaseHandler.java) makes an RPC call per 
row-key, which makes it very inefficient. Need to specify a client side cache 
size on the scan.

Note that HBase currently only supports num-rows based caching (no way to 
specify a memory limit). Created HBASE-6770 to address this.
